Sadly this tree is not doing so well and over 75% of it's crown is leafless. Due to the decline of this tree and other factors it is very likely due to be felled and a suitable replacement found. The ECC tree team are already aware of this tree.

]]><![CDATA[Common walnut (Juglans regia) along the river Exe at Exe Bridges (Jan 2020)]]>Mon, 20 Jan 2020 22:34:05 GMThttps://www.exetertrees.uk/stressed-and-diseased-trees-blog/common-ash-fraxinus-excelsior-along-the-river-exe-at-exe-bridges-jan-2020Information: This is a very young tree and is newly planted. Sadly it is in a poor way - Coral spot has taken hold. Due to the current condition - it is not likely to improve so a replacement tree is probably the solution here. ​The concern here is there is a mature Walnut tree nearby - so if this young tree is infected with any airborne pathogens it could infect any others. I have made the Exeter Tree manager and the Environmental Agency aware.

The cause of the decline (dead leaves and open crown) is likely to be due to water-logging of the roots due to a blocked drain. I have made the Council and local Exwick councillors  aware who will notify the Cemetery manager. If the drain is unblocked and measures taken to reduce to the run off from the slope - the tree's health should improve.
